Build a delicious marriage foundation with a unity sandwich

Unity candles, unity sand ceremonies, unity salt ceremonies, unity cocktails, and now the UNITY SANDWICH! Rachel and her groom decided that the ever-popular sammich was the ideal metaphor for their marriage.

Here are the layers and their meanings:

  • Bread: The foundation that represents trust and communication
  • Meat: Representing strength from protein
  • Colby Jack cheese: Representing two families coming together like the mixed cheese
  • Tomato: Rachel says, “Is it a fruit? Is it a vegetable? It's technically a fruit, but it's still weird and confusing… so tomatoes represent conflict.” HA!
  • Lettuce: Pulled from the head, it represents the dreams they share
  • Mayo and mustard: Adding flavor and excitement to the marriage

You may now take a bite!

Get out your eagle eyes, because there's a lot to see in this raptor-lovin' wedding. Not only were live birds of prey there for the ogling, but guests got a chance to live in this couple's shared brainspace for a day, with hula hoops, a drum circle, and a couple of celebrities. As if that wasn't enough, guests got their sax on in an ultimate sax-off, and that's after the whole party was Rick Rolled. They're never gonna give you up....

Comments on Build a delicious marriage foundation with a unity sandwich

    • Same! I love this idea… but we’d never agree on what to put on the sandwich. 🙂

  3. It’s lunchtime here at work, I have an hour left before I can take my lunch. That sammich is screaming at me. MUST. HAVE. SAMMICHESSSS!

  4. LOL! And I like how it serves the dual purpose of making sure the couple eats something.

    • “Dude, I bet we’ll be really hungry by the time the ceremony rolls around.”

      “Don’t worry, I’ve got a plan…”

    • I didn’t even think of that! I’m completely jacking this idea. Utter genius.

  5. My fiance is going to lose his mind for this idea! and knowing that he’s going to love it makes me love it that much more!
